Anyways I tried looking for a way to do it in flash and was unsucessful, if anyone knows a way to do it in flash that would be my prefference as I dont use Photoshop too often. However I could do it in photoshop and import it into my movie.
how to make something slightly trancelucent or even just make me a glass of milk that'd be great.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm currently running Adobe Photoshop CS2 and Macromedia Dreamweaver MX (version 6). I want to install CS3 (full suite). Is there anything I should know before I make the upgrade? Can I install CS3 without first removing my dated versions of Dreamweaver and Photoshop?
How do I backup all of my brushes and save all of my presets and custom settings? I want to be sure that the new version of Photoshop will run all of my custom settings.
With installing CS3, will any of my Dreamweaver settings be overwritten? Will the new Dreameaver maintain my defined sites and preferences?
i'm trying to automate a few functions,
what i would like to do is to export each window, to separate files, with the white parts cropped. i can do it manually by using the magic wand on the white area in between, then inversing the selection. that way all the windows are selected perfectly. but to save each one as a separate file is a nuisance.
by the way the purpose of this task is to get a comic i have scanned to an ipod for viewing. i can do the cropping/resizing afterwards no troubles, it's just getting the individual 'windows' as separate files.
My company is exporting Postcards in Illustrator CS6. What we do is have a large data set imported into the Variables applet and use the Actions applet to record and export action and play it through the whole data set. We later combine the PDF files and print them as a batch.
My question is: Is there a way to create an action that will automatically print the data set while avoiding the print dialog box? It will make the process simple and move faster.
Also, what are your was of creating postcards? Catalogs?
How do people create a catalog with over 60 pages and keep the file size low?
, theres only the layers on the menu how do i get those missing things back up?. Also, how do i re-attach it to the right side of photoshop where it starts out, no i can move it around...

In the tutorial the guy took himself out of his his everyday photos and placed himself in photos with sceneries and people from other countries and called it his digital vacation.
Unlike most of these cheesy tutorials all of his looked like he was really there in these scenes even placed in groups of people it looked real.
I didn't even think about it then but I'd like to do some of that with pictures I have but can't for the life of me find a good tutorial on how to do it. There's so many websites anymore and most of them are just for Adsense with 100's of links.
I have a Samsung Laser printer. THe passive USB hub went bad yesterday, and I re-installed teh printer drivers. Everything prints fine from my on-line E-mail, Microsoft Word, etc. However, when I attempt to print from Adobe Illustrator I get a "Print to file" WINDOW that comes up, I never got this before I don't want to print to file (!!!!). I want to print to the printer.

Like a bunch of little worms spreading all over the page. I've trashed my prefs, I've reset my tool, I've tried different brushes, I've checked scattering, noise, etc. in my brush settings, I've checked my blend modes, pretty everything I can think of doing, and they are still doing it.

View 6 Replies View RelatedEvery time I try to use the magic wand tool to erase things from a picture the program says there is a problem either look online for a solution or close the program and I choose to look online but it just closes the program down completely. I had not been having any trouble at all and it just immediately started doing this and I had been using the very same tools as I am trying to use now. I am extremely frustrated and I even deactivated the program, uninstalled it, and then reinstalled thinking this would fix it.

I've been playing around with Gimp and making some wallpapers and stuff recently. I'd really like to know how to do something like this: [URL]
It's really hard to explain what exactly I want to know, but I'd like to make something similar with a collage of smaller pictures that all sort of merge into each other like they do in the example. Questions:
- How do I get the backgrounds (of the whole thing, and each separate image) to just fade out/into each other so seamlessly?
- Is there a way to make a layer transparent in some parts but not in others?
Ive figured out how to scale images and remove their backgrounds, but when I go to paste them in a new location I lose their scaling.
What I'm trying to do is put multiple pictures (the items are scaled to actual size, which is important) onto a single 8.5 x 11 page.
So, I've taken some of my pictures, opened their files scaled them to where they need to be, and then removed the backgrounds. I saved that as a new file.
How would I then take those files and place them, with the scale I made them, into something that is this 8.5 x 11 page size.
When I try to do it now, it doesn't keep the scale.
I have a folder of images that need to be shown show one after another, like a slideshow.
Towards the end, the images will be shown shorter and shorter, so the sequence goeds fatser and faster.
Is there a quick and simple way of doing this in AE? Or Premiere for that matter?

View 5 Replies View Relatedi have a drawing boarder block, which I need to edit some of the text.
When I open it up in the Block Editor and click on some of the text, I get a pop up with the fields in. When I change a value and close, it is reflected in the block. All normal.
However, with another text field, when I click it, it wont select, but just selects the other block of text. Of the three blocks I have, I can only edit one of them.
The strange thing is, if I am in the normal layout view, and double click the problem text I then get the pop up with all the fields and their values. Only when I change one of them it is not reflected on the viewpoint.
I've been using Apple's Aperture program, but now that I'm subscribed to CS Cloud, I want to try Lightroom.I installed Lightroom. During the installation process, I created a new folder for storing information about photos @ Users/myname/Pictures/Lightroom/Lightroom 4 Catalog.lrcat
Then I read an article about exporting images from Aperture to Lightroom that said you should set things up on an external hard drive, because your image collection is eventually going to be too big for your internal hard drive.
I'm not a photographer (yet), but I have thousands of images that I use on several different websites. My biggest project is an online encyclopedia of life that will feature countless images of plants and animals.I have six websites, and I decide to create a library for each of the first five, plus half a dozen libraries for the biology site (Mammals, Birds, Plants, etc.). And let's also say I set up shop on an external hard drive.
Will the information for all these libraries be stored in the folder Lightroom 4 Catalog.lrcat on my computer? Or do I need to create a new .lrcat folder on my external hard drive? Will I need a separate .lrcat folder for each library?
I'd prefer to export all my images from Aperture into Lightroom in a library (or libraries) in my internal hard drive - for now. When it gets too big, then I can move it to an external hard drive.
How would I make a photo black & white, but have only certain things colored. Like have a colored headband or flower, but the rest of the pic B&W.
